The Default Local Phone

Call control functions, such as creating a new call, is executed on the users default phone. The default phone is listed in the User settings and the phone must be monitored to enable call control.

Creating a call

There are many ways to create a call from the Totalview client.

If the default local phone is a Dect phone or an analogue phone, then the local phone rings prior to creating the call. Pick up the phone to make the call.

When Remote Calling is activated, calls are established between a mobile or home phone and the called number.

Call a number from the Telephony control

HiPath connector uses PBX settings to change the number you want to call, e.g. + is changed to 00 and so on. Occasionally it is appropriate that this could be ignored so that the Hipath calls excactly the number that was entered into the number field. If you enter @ before the number you want to call, Totalview will not make any changes to the number.

When the client is running, the click&call function can be used to create a call when running another program.

The click&call shortcut is by default Ctrl+½, but can be changed in the Settings -> General dialog.

When Remote Office is enabled, calls from the Totalview client are initiated from the remote office phone and all calls to the local number are sent to the remote office phone.The remote phone effectively acts as a stand in for the local device. The local device can be a physical device or a virtual number.

If Activate Forwarding is checked, all calls to your local phone will be forwarded to your remote phone. N.B. It is not possible to use remote calling to call a busy device. If the destination device is busy, the remote calling call is cleared and an error message is shown in the client log.

Service code on Dect devices

Service codes cannot be executed on Dect devices without answering the device.

To solve this problem the service code can be executed on another device on behalf of the Dect device.Add [DeviceID]*83<L> in front of the service code to execute the service code on another device. E.g. [4010]*83<L><serviceCode> will execute the service code on device 4010. A “behalf of” service code can therefore be [4010]*83<L>*114000, i.e. Forward all from default local to 4000
